"Qingsha Sect definitely has a previous record for trouble." Wang Jingyuan's nose wrinkled disdainfully as she thought about what a bully the Qingsha chief Tian Haiwei was at the Hero Assembly. "Even so, I can't help but feel like they are not smart enough for something like this. I feel like there is a larger, deeper conspiracy at play, but I don't know what it is, or what it could be."
"Little Senior Sister is right; Qingsha Sect isn't smart enough to play mind games or create elaborate traps," Xiao-Li agreed. "But what do we do now? Will Senior Brother come bail us out? Can he even do that?"
Wang Jingyuan considered the prospect, and then shook her head. "Senior Brother won't come. He is chief, so he needs to consider the entire sect, not just the three of us. This trap could very well be a trick to lure the tiger out of the mountain and attack Xuanyan Sect if Senior Brother leaves. He can't come, even if he wanted to."
